Cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes mediate the synthesis of proinflammatory prostaglandin (PG) species from cellular arachidonic acid. COX/PGs have been implicated in skeletal muscle growth/regeneration; however, the mechanisms by which PGs influence skeletal muscle adaptation are poorly understood. The present study aimed to investigate PGF(2α) signaling and its role in skeletal myotube hypertrophy. PGF(2α) or the FP receptor agonist fluprostenol increased C2C12 myotube diameter. This effect was abolished by the FP receptor antagonist AL8810 and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibition. PGF(2α) stimulated time- and dose-dependent increases in the phosphorylation of extracellular receptor kinase (ERK)1/2 (Thr202/Tyr204), p70S6 kinase (p70S6K) (Thr389 and Thr421/Ser424), and eukaryotic initiation factor 4G (eIF4G) (Ser1108) without influencing Akt (Ser473). Pretreatment with the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002 and the ERK inhibitor PD98059 blocked F prostanoid receptor signaling responses, whereas rapamycin blocked heightened p70S6K/eIF4G phosphorylation without influencing ERK1/2 phosphorylation. These data suggest that activation of the F prostanoid receptor is coupled to C2C12 myotube growth and intracellular signaling via a PI3K/ERK/mTOR-dependent pathway.
